Als Flötist, Dirigent, Schriftsteller und Komponist führte Meredith Willson ein bewegtes Leben, das begann, als er mit nur 19 Jahren zum Soloflötisten der berühmten Sousa-Band ernannt wurde. Eine Zeit in der "ernsten" Musik als Komponist und Dirigent für die National Broadcasting Corporation änderte seinen Kurs, als er in die Filmindustrie wechselte und Hintergrundmusik schrieb. Dies war der Vorläufer einer großen Karriere als Komponist von Broadway-Musicals. Wo die meisten anderen scheiterten, komponierte er erfolgreich Symphonien zu leichter Musik von unmittelbarer Anziehungskraft und kleidete sie in die attraktivsten Orchesterfarben.
Flautist, conductor, writer and composer, Meredith Willson led a colourful life that began when at just 19 he was appointed principal flute of the famous Sousa band. A period in ‘serious’ music as composer and conductor for the National Broadcasting Corporation, changed course when he moved into the film industry writing background music. That was the forerunner of a major career composing Broadway musicals. Where most others have failed, he successfully composed to light music symphonies of ready attraction, and clothed in the most attractive orchestral colours.
